Answer:

The answer to your question is Ke = 2240 J

Explanation:

Data

mass of the object = 20 kg

mass of the girl = 50 kg

speed = 8 m/s

Kinetic energy = Ke = ?

Formula

Ke = 1/2 mv²

Process

Kinetic energy is due to the movement of an object.

1.- Calculate the total mass

Total mass = 20 + 50 = 70 kg

2.- Substitution

Ke = 1/2(70)(8)²

3.- Simplification

Ke = 1/2(4480)

4.- Result

Ke = 2240 J

In the reaction 2H2O (1)+ 2Cl^- (aq)= H2(g)+Cl2 (g)+ 2OH^-(aq), which substance is reduced?

Oksanka [162]

Answer:- C. H

Explanations:- Reduction is gain of electron. In other words we could say that decrease in oxidation number is reduction.

As per the rules, oxidation number of hydrogen in its compounds is +1(except metal hydrides) and the oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2.

The oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

In $H_2O$ , the oxidation number of H is +1 and oxidation number of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in $Cl^-$ is -1. On product side, the oxidation number of hydrogen in $H_2$ is zero and in $OH^-$ the oxidation number of H is +1 and that of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in $Cl_2$ is 0.
